A More True Story Than Most Know

As someone who works in this space, we're thrilled to see this story being told the right way. It was important to see their attention to detail regarding both the military/ veteran space as well as fly fishing. Props to the entire team.

The cinematography was incredible whether it was Montana or on the battle field. Definitely a tough watch for some, but it's the reality. Heavy drinking, frustrations with the VA, loss of identity and purpose.

It's the tough reality the world needs to see to appreciate what our soldiers deal with when they return home. It's not pretty. We need more honest films like this.

Important content/beautiful film

What a beautiful way to spotlight an inside look at the pain and suffering of our veterans who return from combat with wounds that are both seen and unseen.

Bravo for showing us an unexpected healing modality.

Through the story of a returning veteran we got a view into grief, trauma, love, boundaries, grit, vulnerability and mostly HOPE.

Each character holds a piece of this bigger story while housing their individual pain and suffering.

The film is heartwarming and hopeful and inspires me to become involved. I just loved it-

To Mark Comora - lucky you to have the chance to say YES to fund a work of art connected to your life long passion. Well done!!

Thank you.

A Beautiful Movie - Screenplay, Cinematography, and the Message

I just saw this movie a few hours ago and was very moved by it. It's the first "10" I have given any movie. It is a story of redemption, healing, and hope from the viewpoint of 2 Combat Vets, one from Vietnam and one from Afghanistan, and one civilian who lost a loved one.

The main story is that of the Afghan Vet, and there are flashbacks to see what he experienced in Afghanistan.

"More books have been written about fly fishing than any other sport", is one of the lines. Throughout the movie, passages are read from these book that concern fly fishing and how it relates to life.

Perfectly cast and against the backdrop of a Montana river.

Watch this movie

I am a veteran who was blessed to have gone through the Warriors and Quiet Waters program. It really is a life changing experience. This movie is spot on, and a cinematic delight. From the appreciation in the film if just taking in nature to the life lessons, it was beautifully filmed. I got goosebumps watching it and remembering where I was and where I am now having learned to fly fish and help my demons. Just watch it, better yet share it with others so they may get a glimpse and maybe understand a little bit more of what veterans go through and struggle with. Then go grab a rod and find your inner peace.

sincere

John Colter (Sinqua Walls) is a Marine wounded in Afghanistan. He's suffering from PTSD although he doesn't acknowledge it in hopes of returning to the battlefield. Dr. Burke (Patricia Heaton) recommends him to Ike Fletcher (Brian Cox), an old Marine who uses fly fishing to help his own issues. Librarian Lucy (Perry Mattfeld) volunteers at the VA who also suffered loss.

This movie is sincere. It tries to be truthful. It has its touching moments. It takes the straight forward path. The movie is about veterans with PTSD and fly fishing. It's not doing anything else. The actors are good. It's got Brian Cox. It is enough.

When Ike is lying in the hospital bed and Lucy is reading to him, the monitor he is hooked up to shows no activity and it looks like he has flat-lined.
